    Not acceptable, but given the lack of education, ongoing education and publicity about road rules I'd be inclined to believe the bus driver if he said 'I don't kow what these white lines on the road mean?'

     

    Further not very wise to have a pedestrian crossing so close to a corner.

    You don't need proper education to drive. Common sense which unfortunately does not exists here would do. Their main goal is money, pick up and drop off as many passengers as they could without any regards to safety.

    Its Meeting mint/suggestion
    Waiting RG which will wait another few months or may be year to implement

    Thanks for the information.

    Would like to hear opinions from those who had applied. Is it worth spending the time and money applying ?

     

    Below are my background

    (1) living here for more than 5 years

    (2) annual extension based on family (wife and kids)

    (3) stable work and salary

     

    Im fustrated with the annual extensions (past 2 years were much better) and dual pricing.

    I also have plan to purchase house/land and start my own business so I'm wondering if the trouble is worth it.

     

    Also, my Thai language is close to 0, just simple conversation, would that make it?

    Does publicizing these videos serve any purpose beyond feeding voyeurism and stoking fear?

     

    I’ve lived in Thailand almost 25 years now, had a car the whole time,  ever once have I come across people getting violent over parking spaces.

     

    The only times I’ve ever had anyone approach me regarding parking, they’ve been polite and respectful, just like the vast majority of people are polite and respectful.

    Had a car but parked at home most of the time? People here just simply park anywhere they like causing traffic Jam and blocking other cars from coming out of their parking space. Walking further away for parking or spending time to find a proper parking space is non existence here especially in Bangkok.
